With the traditional car-making thinking impacting the new energy market, can Extreme Kr 001 have a balanced development
Text/Su Jin Ji
The traditional car-making industry usually has a deep foundation in car-making, but such a car-making concept may be preconceived and more dependent on engineers. Including at the beginning of designing a model, it will be more limited to their own thinking and starting angle. However, traditional car manufacturers also have their own advantages, that is, they are very confident in the hardware structure of a model.
Extreme Kr is a new energy brand backed by traditional car manufacturers, so what Extreme Kr has is an international factory style, and its Extreme Kr 001 has a good grasp of both in terms of appearance design and structural technology. Including the model has Volvo's safety technology background, so it is good enough at the structural safety system level.
This model continues the design style of the Lynk & Co family, after all, Extreme Kr was also once a member of Lynk & Co, so Extreme Kr 001 also continued this design approach. The overall hunting aura of the model is very strong, the sense of sport is quite visual impact, and because the design method of the model is relatively rare, there will be some scientific and technological elements in the distribution of the light group and the design level.
The volume of the model is relatively large, positioned in the medium and large field, and the design characteristics of the model are not only the hunting style. In addition to the layout of the light cluster and the use of sports elements, this model also has a borderless door, the moment the door is opened, the borderless door will be very conspicuous.
Extreme Kr 001 is a new energy as the core of the model, is also a pure electric performance model, on the basis of performance, it also has the positioning of intelligent cars, but compared to intelligence, this model is more inclined to the performance field. Because the power of this model will be better than the intelligent system level.
There are currently three models on sale, and these three models are divided into one rear-drive model and two four-wheel drive models. Because it is a pure electric model, the rear-drive model is equipped with a rear axle single motor drive, while the four-wheel drive model is equipped with a front and rear axle dual motor four-wheel drive, which belongs to the electric four-wheel drive mode.
The power given by the rear axle single motor is 272 hp and 384 Nm motor torque, the electric four-wheel drive is a dual motor, and the power of the single motor is the same as the power of the rear drive version, so after the power of the front and rear axle motors is superimposed, there is 544 horsepower + 768 Nm torque, which can distribute sufficient torque output to the four wheels.
In fact, this model can bring users very good performance and handling experience in terms of handling, although it is a large-scale model, but the roll support of the chassis is very in place, the suspension is tight, and the body can be quickly returned to the right when bending, without dragging mud and water. Therefore, this is the hardware foundation of traditional car manufacturers, and it is very well mastered in terms of mechanical structure.
However, at the level of the intelligent system, the shortcomings of Extreme Kr 001 have also emerged. For now, the display of this model is large enough, but the underlying logic of the car-machine system is more complicated, and it is impossible to quickly find the corresponding function when selecting the items to be set in the menu interface. And the response of the car machine system is not sharp enough, although the model has a voice interaction system, but the coverage is average.
Extreme Kr 001 car engine system for the network dependence will be more serious, if the vehicle is driving in a more remote area, the signal is not so stable, then the extreme Kr 001 this set of speech recognition function may not be able to use normally. Therefore, for now, the intelligent technology system of Extreme Kr 001 still needs to be improved.
summary:
Extreme Kr is a typical corporate case of traditional automobile transformation to the new energy field, but Extreme Kr 001 is just the beginning, so for the intelligent system of this model, it is still too early to be demanding. Traditional car manufacturers continue to polish their ideas under the impact of the new energy wave, and we cannot demand that a traditional car manufacturer that has lasted for decades change its thinking overnight. And The extreme krypton 001 is also trying to do better, although the current model of the car system is not ideal, but it has OTA upgrades, under the continuous optimization of the system, the future may reach our ideal appearance.
